You do! [ Honest as ever. She stills for a bit, though, enjoying the way his fingers feel on her tail, and perhaps- she squirms a little, enjoying it a bit too much as she crosses her legs too.
She's obviously trying to contain herself, and her breath catches for a moment. ]
It's a vast and beautiful land, with hills and plains as far as they eye can see. Moon-gates rise high over the rivers, and mountains so high that they become part of the clouds and sky, and the night sky is filled with so many stars you can see into the heavens beyond... that's where I grew up... In the lands of Yanxia.
[ She tenses a moment, but doesn't push him away. ]
W...ere you always living in this Shinjuku of yours?
[It makes his chest swell to hear such an beautiful explanation of her homeland. Of course, Jakurai had only the beauty of modern japan to compare to it.
He hums to himself, thinking. Thinking thinking thinking.]
I was in the military for quite some time after I put down the mantle of being an assassin. That took me several different places around the world. When the wars were ended, and the overthrow of the government happened...I came home. Shinjuku will always be my home.
It is a hustle and bustle of city life, loud cars...even louder people. Entertainment districts as far as the eye can see. Shinjuku is very classy, but the personality of the day and the night are completely different. I suppose that can be said of many of the residents of Shinjuku as well.
[ She repeats it under her breath, though thanks to this place, she can actually imagine the world around. Her hand brushes across his cheek, watching his face with an affectionate look before she chuckles. ]
It sounds like it, Doctor who was once an Assassin.
[ She smiles, her gaze softening at the sight of him. ]
I'd like to see it sometime. Maybe we can visit it in one of those Amphoria Rooms...
[ She doesn't want to bring up the thought or idea of him leaving and her following... she knows it's not possible. They may as well focus on what they can do at this point. ]
Why don't we go tomorrow, after work? You look tired right now, Jakurai. And I want a nap.
[ She pushes close so she can tuck her head under his and hold him tight— it is late and even though she doesn't sleep at nights, she wants to sleep here with him. ]
